Modules & VBA :: Input Box Search - Find A Record In Main Form
Jun 5, 2014
Input box Search problem. I have been using the following to find a record in my frmMain using an Input Box:
Private Sub cmdClientIdSearch_Click()
'Searches for Client by ID number
Dim rs As Object
Dim strCriteria As String
strCriteria = InputBox("Please enter Client ID" & vbCr & "Do not type leading zeros")
[Code] ....
It works great if I run it from a command button from frmMain. But, if frmMain is open and I run it from a command button on my switchboard, I get the following error message:
Run Time error 7951. You entered an expression that has an invalid reference to the Recordset Clone Property. I tried inserting a command to open frmMain in the first line, even before the two Dim statements, but I get the same result.

I'm trying to search a for string within a subform to find information stored on the mainform to which the particular subform belongs.
The problem is that the subform is generated from a query which uses a number from the main form to generate.
So the subform record is only generated when the correct mainform record associated with it is loaded.
Now to solve my problem I've made a new query that brings up ALL the results that could be generated by the main form and from that I can search to find my search term I'm after and read off the ID number to tie it back to the mainform.
But all of this is done manually, I want a way to do all this using VBA in a way that the user can't edit any records as they are doing it.

Can someone tell me how I migh find a record in a main form based a a selection in my subform?
I have a Main form called frm_ProductionSchedule.
It contains three subforms:
frm_ProductionSchedule_subform
frm_ProductionSchedule2_subform
frm_ProductionSchedule3_subform
I would like to be able to select a record within any of the subforms and have the main form display it. The main form is linked to a SQL server Table. The subform are based on queries. The unique PK field is a date field called record_date.
I should add that the Link Child/Master fields are blank for all Subforms. Each Subform is linked to a query and displays data for a particular machine (1,2 or 3) AND is updated based on a combo selection of the Production week. The queries for one subform would look something like this:
SELECT dbo_tbl_ProdSchedule.PartType, dbo_tbl_ProdSchedule.PartNumber, dbo_tbl_ProdSchedule.Work_order_no, dbo_tbl_ProdSchedule.FrameType, dbo_tbl_ProdSchedule.FrameNumber, dbo_tbl_ProdSchedule.Shift, dbo_tbl_ProdSchedule.Sch1_date, dbo_tbl_ProdSchedule.Sch1_spins, dbo_tbl_ProdSchedule.Sch1_sheets, dbo_tbl_ProdSchedule.Sch2_spins, dbo_tbl_ProdSchedule.Sch2_sheets, dbo_tbl_ProdSchedule.Sch3_spins, dbo_tbl_ProdSchedule.Sch3_sheets, dbo_tbl_ProdSchedule.Sch4_spins, dbo_tbl_ProdSchedule.Sch4_sheets, dbo_tbl_ProdSchedule.Sch5_spins, dbo_tbl_ProdSchedule.Sch5_sheets, dbo_tbl_ProdSchedule.Sch6_spins, dbo_tbl_ProdSchedule.Sch6_sheets, dbo_tbl_ProdSchedule.Sch7_spins, dbo_tbl_ProdSchedule.Sch7_sheets, dbo_tbl_ProdSchedule.Frames_due_date, dbo_tbl_ProdSchedule.Comments, dbo_tbl_ProdSchedule.Record_date
FROM dbo_tbl_ProdSchedule
WHERE (((dbo_tbl_ProdSchedule.Sch1_date)=[Forms]![frm_ProductionSchedule]![cmbSchDisDate]) AND ((dbo_tbl_ProdSchedule.SpinCoaterNo)=1));
AND WHERE ((dbo_tbl_ProdSchedule.SpinCoaterNo)=2)), etc. Respectively for each subform.
Thanks in Advance!!

I am currently working on a project in access 2010 and I am having a search for record dilemma. I have a main form that has a subform in it under a tab control. I place a search box at the top of the form so that user could select either the ID, the internal case number, and/or the reviewer name in the text boxes to search the record.
I have tried the using the search for record macros and the convert the macros to VBA and possibly write so extra coding for calling the subform into the search but nothing seems to work in getting the search in sync between the main form an the subform. VBA code that will look for same record in both forms.
The reason for the tab control is because depending on the data entered the users switch between mid section data about case and so one set of info goes into one tbl and the other goes into another, but the subform that I am referring to in this question is being generated from the same tbl as the main form.

Is it possible on the Find Record button added to a form to adjust the search function so it defaults to a specific box on the form? I have a form for tracking employee's and on my Find Record button I would like it to default to the Last name instead of the Record number.

I'm trying to build a search form.- Access 2007
I have a table (Table1), contains a 'part' field.
I wan to build a form with a blank text box (txtbx1) where users can enter a part description, this will search records in Table1>part and return a list of parts that match the textbox input.
Here's what I've done -
txtbx1 - property sheet - control source - part
event - on enter - ...
I've built an expression -
[Table1]![part] = [txtbx1]
hoping that this would match records 1n Table1 to txtbx1

I have a modal form which has a single record which is then linked to a sub-form on the same modal form. This all works fine and shows the relevant record and sub records but I want the modal form main record to change dependant on the record selected in the subform (which is basically order item history.
I found some code on another site which seemed to work for others but for me I am getting Run-time error 2465 and it doesn't like my reference to 'Me' - is this because it is a modal form?The code I am using is:
Public Function GotoRecord(RecordID As Long)
Dim rst As DAO.Recordset
Dim strCriteria As String
Set rst = Me.RecordsetClone
strCriteria = "ID = " & RecordID
rst.FindFirst strCriteria
If rst.NoMatch = False Then
Me.Bookmark = rst.Bookmark

I have VBA code for a Print Preview button on the main form that previews the current record in a separate Report using this code:
Code:
Private Sub cmdPrintRecord_Click()
Dim strWhere As String
If Me.Dirty Then 'Save any edits.
Me.Dirty = False
End If
[code]....
I use this Print Preview code on a Button in the Form Header. The Main form lists head of household information. I also have a tabbed control with three tabs that have SubForms for Address, Children and Contact details. The problem I have is that if any of the subforms are left blank I get a Run-Time Error '3021': No Current Record. If I Debug (press the button), it takes me straight to this line:
Code:
varAge = DateDiff("yyyy", varBirthDate, Now)
highlighted in Yellow.Anyone on my database must have an address, should have contact details and could have children. If any one of these is blank then the print preview will not work.I would like to know how to stop this error happening for blank records in my subforms.

I have an App that runs a few action queries using:
Code:
CurrentDb.Execute "[My Query Name]"
At some point I get this Error: The Microsoft Access database engine cannot find the input table or query <name>. Make sure it exists and that its name is spelled correctly. (Error 3078).The query is there, I can run it from the DB objects window.Queries run using CurrentDb.Execute earlier in the code.

I am trying to use a query to search 2 many to many relationships but i keep getting duplicate results because each record is slightly different.
I have a table with cameras, another users and another formats. I have a table linking cameras to users and another linking cameras to formats so it looks somthing like this:
tblCameras - tblFormatlink - tblFormats
tblcameras - tblUserslink - tblUsers
When i add all the tables into a query i get loads of results as expected because i get a result for every possible combination.
What i want is when i search for all cameras that are suitable for a user who is a beginner is to get just a list of unique cameras. When i do that search at the moment i get a duplicate record for each different format the camera can do.

I have a search form that looks up a value in a field and lets the user know if it is there or not, they have now asked to put in multiple values to search... eg. searching containers number, I will put user input box where they can put these numbers
NYKU023561
TRLU102356
TCNU123023
This will search my container number field and show a pop up message box saying..
Please note below
NYKU023561 - has been found you cannot use this container
TRLU102356 - has not been found please check internal system
TCNU123023 - has beeen found you cannot use this container
Below is the basic search I had before which was all I needed.. how can I adapt this?
Code:
Private Sub Command256_Click()
If (CntSearch & vbNullString) = vbNullString Then Exit Sub
Dim rs As DAO.Recordset
Dim CNT As String
[Code]....

creating a VBA that will allow me to search for a record in Table A, and once the record is found, allow me the option to add that record to Table B. Is this possible to do if Table A and Table B are not formatted the same (i.e. one has more fields than the other)? In summary, creating a VBA that will allow me to search in one table and once the correct record is found, allow me the ability to add it to another table.

I am 2 years into my database. I am trying to find and open a folder based on a text box. The problem is folder could be in many sub folders which is hold on our J: drive.
To further complicate, the folder i am searching may not be exactly as the text box states.
EG. Text box could say 123456 however the folder could be called M123456 etc.
How do i locate a folder or subfolder and open it based on part of a text box...

I have two tables called "tblFundingBodies" and "tblGrants". I have a form that allows me to view all the records for each of the funding bodies. By this I mean, it shows information on a funding body but to see information on the next funding body, I must click on the next record button. Just wanted to clarify that it isn't in the form of a table.
This form also has a subform in the same format that shows each of the grants that funding body has provided. When I select the next record from the main form, it will show me the grants from the company in the next record. The field that has the funding body is a text box.
I want to be able to add a seach facility to the main form that allows me to search for a funding body and get back exactly what I have described above, but just the details on that funding body/grants. In other words, I want the form view of the funding body I search for with the sub form of the grants from that funding body, not in the form of a table where you can see them all at once, I want to be able to click through each grant in the sub form.

I have a form that acts as a filter/search engine -- it inputs criteria into a query, then opens a report based on the criteria/query. One of the criteria options is "Supplier Number", which is to be entered into an unbound text box.
All of our suppliers have 10 digits, usually in this format: A123400000 (i.e. First character is either a Letter or digit, followed by four or five digits, then followed by four or five zeros)
Our system works with ten digit numbers, while the people in the dept are used to just typing in "A1234" assuming the zeros are irrelevant.
How do I create a validation rule or input mask where a user can simply type "A1234", then it will return zeros for the remaining of the ten required characters?
I realize the usual response to these type of simple question is "Search the Threads", but I have done so already and still don't have an answer!

HI!
I'm trying to figure out, how to make seach form with one text field, that will accept OR statements. I have one table with fields name, category, and description.
Is there any chance to make search like this:
User will put "part of the string" OR "part of the string2".
Result will be the list of the records that include these parts of the strings in any of the given above fields (name,category,description)
I hope i'm clear enough
Thank You in Advance
for any Advice

The situation is like this:
I am designing a db for a dental clinic. I created 3 tables as follows:
1.T_Patients (P_Code(PK) and other fields)
2.T_Diagnosis (P_Code(Fk), ToothRecId (PK) and 32 text fields for 32 tooth named (UR1 to UR8, UL1- UL8 for Upper left / right Arch and LR1 to LR8, LL1 to LL8 for Lower left / right Arch)
3.T_Pmts (P_Code (FK), PmtRecId(PK) and other fields
I created one main form based on T_Patients tbl and similarly another 2 forms from other 2 tables. In the main form I placed 1 sub-form and 2nd sub-form. Bothe the sub-forms are Master / Child relationship on form over P_Code field in the main form.
Single character length has used for all the 32 text fields in table T_Diagnosis. So only one single B, C, D, F, M could be entered.
Normally we search patient’s profile by patient’s code or by name that displays in the main form. But the client needs to search patient’s record by tooth criteria.
There may many tooth fields in the first sub-form that are null and only some of them with any one of the B, C, D, F, M character. Bcz there is very rare chances of damaging all 32 tooth of the patient.
Now my clients want to search based on the data which are B, C, D, F, M characters. Means once he types C (stands for Cavity) in a search text box then it should bring all the sub-form records that hold value C in any of the 32 fields.
1.How can I do this when the search based on SUB-FORM and not over the main form?
2.The entered criteria value might by in other field also. Like say if entered C then this value may be in any of the 32 fields. So how it would bring all records?
I am confused how to do it. I attached a pic of my form for your ready ref. :confused:
I would really appreciate if somebody could help me.
With kind regards,
Ashfaque

When I add a record in the subform and then move to the next record whilst still in the subform, the main form jumps back to its first record? I then have to move back to the right record in the main form to update the next record in the subform.
I want to move to the next record in the subform without affecting the main form.

I am creating an events database. In my main form, I have all the details of a single event (billing code, fees, customer, support personnel, etc.). Then, I have a subform (form view) that lists each of the other services which share an event ID (this ID comes from a separate, unrelated events management suite). In the subform, I display the most-commonly-edited fields so that they are editable without navigating to a different record.
However, there will be instances where it becomes necessary to navigate to one of the records listed in the subform. I would like to make this a quick process by just clicking on the primary key in the subform, and have the corresponding record appear in the main form.
In my searches I've found a common suggestion to use a DoCmd.OpenForm method where the form opens to that specific record -- in effect filtering by the primary key number. I don't prefer this method because it disables the ability to navigate to other records using the previous, next, find records, (etc.) buttons without closing and re-opening the form.
Is there a way to make the main form 'jump' to a specific record by clicking on a control in the subform, without limiting the ability to navigate in the main form?

I have a unbounded form which has all the fields same as the table. Now I want to search a row from the table with the Ticket number and First Name. After retrieving all the fields instead of using Update query I just want to add it as a new record.

PROCESS AS DESIGNED: The user logs in and is given a form displaying existing records that are coded (by userid) for that user to update. From that list, the user selects a record and continues to a second form (the first form closes) which displays all the fields of the selected record which should/can be edited by the user (plus a few non-editable key fields). There is nothing tricky to how the records are selected for display. A simple query behind the first form selects data records using the userID number. The second form does a simple record select using the active record ID number on the first form. Nothing tricky -- no modules just queries, tables, forms and simple macros to string it all together.
The user can open/close these two forms as often as necessary and the record will continue to show up until a value is entered into a "completion date" field. When that field is no longer blank, the record will no longer be displayed for use.
PROBLEM: About 90% of the time, things work as expected. But 10-15% of the time, somewhere between opening the record in the second form and closing the second form, the edited record totally disappears (as if it were never opened, it isn't even system date stamped) and the input information is inserted instead into a brand new record.
Users can sometimes tell when the edit record is dropped during processing, because key fields displaying previously entered data go blank and the displayed recordID (autonumber) is changed. p>
ERROR PATTERN: NONE! It can happen as the edit record is first opening, in the middle of editing the form, or at the end when closing the form. It will happen on a specific PC 2 times in a row and the third time be fine. It has happened at multiple locations but not for all people and not consistently for the same person/same pc. The same record that failed can be re-selected and work just fine the next time.
I cannot reproduce the error myself. I have tested everything I can think of without causing the error. I can lose changes and avoid a system date stamp if I abort my Access sesssion, but that doesn't create/insert a new record with my new input. It just loses everything.
I have wondered if a momentary break in the network/communications could break the connection to the application to just enough that the form remains on the screen, but selected record is discarded. Input into the empty form would/does insert a new record.
I have asked the IT Operations group to investigate if a network/communication problem could be the culprit, but they haven't gotten far on this. I have never seen this happen before and am totally stumped but am desperate to resolve it before user confidence is damaged.

I got this function which is supposed to find a record based on the primary key, and then give three fields a value if they should be empty.
Public Function DoesXrefExist(faPersonID As Long, faRoleCode As String, faDorpID As Long, faDorpCode As String)
If (DLookup("PersonID", "PEOPLE", "PersonID =" & faPersonID) > 0) Then
End Function
Thats as far as i have got...for the next part.I get the feeling that i need to use the recordset object that exists somewhere.How do i access that recordset object? I have not been using any DAO or ADO, just straight VBA. I know i can create recordsets and stuff using DAO/ADO, but there must be a recordset that has been created already by the Dlookup command...
